All educators should be professional and have a lot of patience no matter where they are teaching- online or in-person, in urban areas, rural areas or small suburban areas with students or all backgrounds and abilities. Educators today have more opportunities to impact the lives of students from various backgrounds due to the technology and learning platforms. Educators can influence student's academic lives more than they realize it.
The educators of today need to be creative, continue self-enrichment, be fair, and should be caring. The teacher needs to step out and help with extra-curricular activities like field trips, advising clubs, assisting academic fairs, and promoting student academic achievements through activities outside the classroom. Often this means using their own time and money to promote the activities for the students.
Educators need to be able to communicate with students, other educators, staff, administration, and the community. They also need to be available to answer the questions and concerns of the students and help them develop as scholars. Educators are like mentors guiding the learners to truth, knowledge, and helping them find their voice.
Educators need to be outstanding examples in both word and deed because they need to be on time, have their materials ready, and be prompt. The educators need to keep track of their commitments to the students as well as the school, especially in a small urban setting where they are counting on them.
I strive to be that educator for you.
